gabe connelly - firefly (live demo) lyrics
[verse 1]
i fall asleep staring at a furnace fire
wondering why tonight the flames look brighter
what i wouldn’t give to be together
but i’m alone again, life’s consistent, at least there
[verse 2]
fire’s always used as symbols
but i wonder why that’s what they chose
maybe it’s because it’s beautiful
yet so dangerous, so don’t get too close
maybe fire’s like my life
beautiful on the inside
but doesn’t seem appealing
so people stay away
[pre+chorus]
they try to douse mе out, maybe throw some sand
but you, you’re diffеrent, you’re like my water
you’ll touch me, hold my hand
you don’t care if you get burned, because the fire can be caring
the fire can be nice too, the fire knows affection
[chorus]
the flames burn bright
where have you been all my life?
you’re the prettiest firefly
that has ever graced my eyes
why did you choose me as your guy?
i’m destructive and seemingly high
but i guess we need the low points
to truly love our lives
[verse 3]
a firefly’s habitat is the forest
so i guess i’ll meet you there
there, but i’m scared
won’t i burn down the oak?
but you remind me i can be calm
i don’t have to overthink
and so i take the nice path
through the meadows and the playthings
you’ll take me to a small town
a village by the cave
i give them light, you give me life
my life is what you’ve saved
a firefly and a flame
whoever would have thought
we can live in harmony together
all because you gave me a shot
[chorus]
the flames burn bright
where have you been all my life?
you’re the prettiest firefly
that has ever graced my eyes
why did you choose me as your guy?
i’m destructive and seemingly high
but i guess we need the low points
to truly love our lives!
[bridge]
but i suppose, all flames must burn out eventually
all the good times, nothing but a memory
but, my love, tell me don’t you see?
this all started because i like you and you like me!
[chorus]
the flames burn bright
where have you been all my life?
you’re the prettiest firefly
that has ever graced my eyes
why did you choose me as your guy?
i’m destructive and seemingly high
but i guess we need the low points
to truly love our lives!
i guess we need the low points
to truly love our lives!
